7 Foods Kids With ADHD Should Avoid

ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Although ADHD maybe is diagnosed in all ages, it is more common in children. If your kid has ADHD they might have trouble focusing on the task they are doing, have trouble organising, get distracted easily, and experience various other symptoms.

However, besides medication and counselling, what your kid eats can also influence the severity or diminishing of their symptoms. Certain foods can help reduce the severity of your kid's symptoms, promote better brain functions, and better the medication's efficiency. On the other hand, certain foods might increase and worsen your kid's ADHD symptoms.

Here are 7 foods that your kid should avoid if they have ADHD:

Sodas

Sodas and other sugary drinks like packed juices can worsen your kids' lack of focus and boost hyperactivity. As these foods are full of sugar and preservatives, they might cause your kid to get distracted easily and hinder their performance at various tasks.

Caffeine

Similar to sugar, caffeinated drinks can cause hyperactivity in your child. High caffeine boosts various happy hormones and energises the body and mind. This increase in energy may be a trouble if your child is often hyperactive and engages in multiple tasks at once.

Candies (Sugar)

As discussed under sodas, sugar increases energy levels in the body. This can lead to excessive hyperactivity. Candies and other sugary foods such as cakes, pastries, chocolates, etc. may not be fit for your kid if they have ADHD. Although, occasionally consuming these foods may not cause any significant changes but maybe worrisome if consumed regularly.

Processed frozen foods

Processed frozen foods even frozen vegetables and fruits may not be fit for kids and people with ADHD. Highly processed foods have various preservatives that might affect your kid's symptoms. Along with this, artificial colouring may also cause behavioural problems in your kid.

Energy drinks

Energy drinks are high in sugar and caffeine. As the name suggests, energy drinks can cause a sudden and significant increase in our energy levels. This may worsen symptoms such as lack of focus, hyperactivity, and so on.

Look for food sensitivity

Studies have shown, that some foods may affect some people that have ADHD. Some people might be more sensitive to these foods than other people with ADHD. Foods such as chocolate, soy, milk products, etc. may cause symptoms to worsen in some children. Hence, if your kid is experiencing more difficulty than usual, the food they are eating may have a role to play in it.

Dairy products

Some kids with ADHD might experience an increase in ADHD symptoms post-consumption of dairy products, especially sourced by cows. Foods such as cheese, yogurt, milk, ice creams, etc. may reduce focus and other brain functions.

In conclusion, keeping a close eye on what your kid is eating can help better their ADHD symptoms. We advise you to seek professional guidance to help map out a meal that is fit for your child. Along with this, we also encourage you to enroll your kids in physical activities and they might also reduce symptoms.

Common Signs Of An Unhealthy Gut

According to Dr. Kellyanne, our gut is the basis for our well-being and our illness. She says that it all starts in the gut. Today we will share with you the best way to restore a healthy gut and reduce inflammation.

It makes sense that what we consume will have a positive or negative effect. You wouldn’t fill your car with sugar and expect it to run. The same applies to your body!

Healthy Gut Healthy Mind

Your brain health is also directly linked to your gut health. It’s another reason to take this condition seriously.

Highly processed foods, sugar, alcohol, and caffeine can all have an adverse toll on your gut flora as can antibiotics. They strip out all the good gut bacteria that is vital for well-being.

BTOX: Testing Yourself for Dangerous Toxins and GI Diseases

Health and medicine used to be much harder. Doctors were actually operating in the dark, never knowing about the world of cells, viruses, and bacteria. Today, the world of medicine is a very different one. Doctors now have thousands of tests to determine what's wrong with us.

One of the biggest problems with detection, however, even in this age, is that all the tests are done at clinics and hospitals, meaning we the person must first DETECT a problem or a symptom with ourselves. Often, by the time a symptom manifests strongly enough for us to finally realize something is truly wrong - the problem has already gotten much, much worse.

For example, take the case of stomach problems. Did you know over 52% of people over the age of 40 report suffering from CONTINUOUS gut and stomach pain or discomfort? That percent continues to climb as we advance in age. Most of us just shrug it off and blame food or bad digestion. We try to vary our diet and tell ourselves the discomfort is a bit better while most of the time it continues.

Common symptoms that occur continuously can be bloating, constipation, diarrhea, Crohn's Disease, IBS and other digestive issues we deal with. The biggest problem is these GI problems are linked to other issues such as skin conditions and autoimmune disease or even psychological disorders such as anxiety and depression. The stomach is a nerve center and can affect the rest of the body in a thousand different ways.

We're fortunate though because we live at an age where medical tests are now starting to be offered as home kits. These kits can be ordered and easily performed at home, allowing us to find medical problems we didn't even know we had, and at a much earlier stage.
Years of eating food left in the open and food that has gone through unwashed hands or just unlucky enough to be near toxins at some point. Most of these toxins get washed away with our urine, but a certain group of toxins do not go anywhere but sink into your guts and stomach, staying and building up in your body. 

For GI problems, we now have tests that can be taken at home. These tests are called BTOX tests and they give actual clarity about the situation in your gut by screening it and identifying the exact food sensitivities that trigger your autoimmune and chrnoic illnesses. The test provides you with a crucial list of foods are good for your personal digestive system and those that are destroying on your guts – and that should be avoided at all costs. 

his is something we highly recommend doing for yourself and the adults in your family. You receive a home test you can conduct easily on your own, then you just fill up a questionnaire and send it back with your collected sample in order to receive a full analysis of your biochemistry, warning as to potential problems, and a nutritional plan designed individually to correct the issue. It's never too early to catch something that may affect your entire life unless stopped. The BTOX test comes with a detailed nutritional plan after finding out what exactly is wrong with your GI.
